(Roland Alphonso - Jazz Ska)
this prime slice of Jamaican musicology comes from the King Edwards stable and features many of the best proponents of the Ska style. Baba Brooks, Arkland 'Drumbago' Parks, Lester Sterling and tenor sax king, Roland Alphonso.
Recorded and released on the King Edwards label in 1965 at the height of the genres popularity, (it would only be a year before Rock Steady became the 'in thing'), this is Ska at it's finest.
